You'll make: Creamy chicken and asparagus pie with a plump summer pudding & berry sauce.

The aromas of freshly baked bread and a good slice of tangy cheese topped pizza scattered with aromatic herbs is hard to resist. You’ll get to know the basic ingredients and how they work together to make beautiful dough.

You’ll get to understand how you may damage your dough and the key stages in making, resting, moulding and finishing your ferments. Best of all you’ll have your own fresh bread to take away with you along with a hand stretched pizza.

On this three hour session you’ll be shown how to light the oven through to enjoying your own wood fired pizza in the Cheshire countryside. You will learn about fuel, building up and retaining heat plus controlling and positioning the fire.

As the heat builds in the oven we’ll head into the kitchen where you make your pizza dough by hand and Chef will take you through some knife skills as we make the toppings. Back at the oven we’ll push back & position the fire, cook and eat a chicken fajita before stretching out your dough, topping your pizza and sliding it into the oven alongside the blazing logs. There are still a few more tips and techniques to go through as you watch your pizza come to life and bake to perfection.
